in regards to the high-speed cameras

(i dont know about them btw)


a quick google search says

Quote:
In 1950, Morton Sultanoff, an engineer for the U.S. Army at Aberdeen Proving ground, invented a super high-speed camera that took frames at one-millionth of a second, and was fast enough to record the shock wave of a small explosion.
so if high speed cameras weren't commercially available in 1969 as he claims we know the military had them almost 20years before that
